Been a while since I've requested any updates on this for a very long time - a year later, and I've still requesting it out of habit...

You're right, although The warp feature is similar to Rebel Galaxy, no warp in Avorion. I like the feel of this vs Avorion, although it still lacks some important features such as Auto turrets, Auto targeting systems, and of course boarding to capture ships with marines.

i was about to say the same thing

It crashed countless times on my side, and also it's so poorly optimized it's unplayable.
Avoid until it leaves early access.
